If we try to unlink a path that doesn't exist, we need to do nothing instead of failing hard and logging an exception on Sentry.

This has generated more than 6.5k Sentry logs.

I'm not sure about the causes of this, but I guess that bots/spam has something to do here. I think the whole project is completely deleted before the celery task that removes the symlinks is executed and that makes the unlink to fail.

Should this be called safe_unlink to mirror the safe_makedirs and show it has a bit more error handling?
